I am just asking a curious question because of heard a lot of bad flak about China/Korea/HK. How was dating there. My experience was Japan and I thought it was pretty nice. Why is the dating not as good in those other countries, racism, lack of manners, poverty? Just curious.

Dating in Hong Kong was okay for me. I would just say the girls are more conservative than Japanese girls. They (the HK girls) certainly have/had money when I was living there (1992-1995).

Dating girls in China is a snap....no matter what race or religion you are.

Many are really just after a passeport and a trip to your ome country...but I don't blame them for that.

In Korea, the girls are just out for fun. Best and easiest place to pick up might be in Itaewan where there are tons of foreigners and girls who prefer foreigners. Another place would be Hongdae, where there are lots of University students and a lively bar/disco scene.

Japan? Well you know already.

It's really about what you are looking for.

Ah, yes, the passport issue. Thought that was an obvious one for peopel with not much money, though of course, freedom might be an issue too (for Japanese wives too, the culture can be oppresive for women).

I know this is off topic but Philippines is also a haven for dating.

The Whole Asian Girl/Western guy thing is common place in todays world of interracial dating.

My wife is African Caribbean and boy do we get alot of stares still.
But it is quite amusing!

You should not have any problem in any of the countries in question.
Just be a "good guy" and a gentleman. Too many guys I know have just hurt alot of Asian girls because they were just out for fun, I dont respect the players because no one wants to get hurt.

Goodluck and enjoy

And Japan, and Hong Kong.

Overheard conversation on the bus.

YW1 - young woman 1, YW2 - young woman 2

YW1 Oh, I met one of my boyfriends yesterday. He bought me some earrings I asked for.

YW2 Wah! I met two of my boyfriends yesterday. One took me for a nice expensive lunch, and the other took me by car to Sai Kung!

YW1 Oh, 3 of my boyfriends have a car.

YW2 Oh, I wish more of my ten had a car.

YW1 You have only 10? Oh, I think I have 19 now!

YW2 You are so great!
